LCD display and camera lens  
The LCD of your CLIÉ handheld is designed with precision technology. In some cases,  
individual pixels may remain lit or may not light at all. Brightness of the display may  
appear inconsistent, depending on the angle of view. Such anomalies are caused by the  
nature of the LCD and do not indicate a malfunction.  
Please note that Sony does not guarantee a replacement or refund for such cases.  
Do not expose the LCD or camera lens to direct sunlight for prolonged periods. It may  
result in a malfunction. Do not store your CLIÉ handheld in areas subject to sunlight, such  
as near windows, and be careful when using outdoors.  
The built-in camera  
Bright or dark pixels may appear on pictures taken with the built-in camera.  
This phenomenon is not a malfunction and occurs due to the nature of the image sensor  
of the built-in camera.  
Before taking pictures (CLIE Camera)  
Sony recommends taking a test picture to confirm settings, etc., before actual shooting.  
Take a test shot, save it, and view it to check the result. Experiment with the camera for  
best results.  
No guarantee for lost or damaged data  
Sony does not provide guarantee against lost or damaged data.

Making a backup of the data or applications on  
your CLIÉ handheld  
Sony recommends that you make a backup of your data in case of unexpected  
problems. Backing up your data will ensure that it can be restored again on your  
CLIÉ handheld, even if you have to perform a hard reset.  
Making a backup using Memory Stick Backup  
Use “Memory Stick” media and Memory Stick Backup on your CLIÉ  
handheld to back up data and applications on your CLIÉ handheld.  
b “Memory Stick” media (sold separately) is required.  
For details, refer to “Backing up your CLIÉ™ handheld data and applications:  
Backing up data and applications to “Memory Stick” media using Memory Stick  
Backup” in the “Handbook” (PDF format).  
Making a backup using the HotSync® operation  
Data or applications on your CLIÉ handheld are backed up to your computer  
®
when the HotSync operation is performed. If you need to perform a hard reset,  
this would erase all user data and applications stored on your CLIÉ handheld.  
However, the erased data and applications can be restored with the next  
®
HotSync operation.  
Notes  
Some add-on applications (not installed at the factory), and some application  
data and settings may not be backed up using the HotSync operation. However,  
a complete backup of all data on your CLIÉ handheld can be made with  
Memory Stick Backup.  
®
Use Memory Stick Backup often to make complete backups.  
When you need to restore data, and so on, make sure that you perform the  
®
HotSync operation immediately after you perform a hard reset. Otherwise, if  
you create new data on your CLIÉ handheld between the hard reset and  
®
performing the HotSync operation, the data may be lost.
